The Finnish text is a reprint of the 1911 edition, which was a revision, prepared by the British and Foreign Bible Society and carried through the press by K.A. Waaranen, an ordained Minister of the Finnish Church employed at a Teachers' Training Institute at Sortavala. The revision included the modernization of the orthography, the removal of grammatical forms etc. borrowed from the Swedish, the improvement of the version by getting rid of strange words and inaccurate renderings. The editor was allowed to make full use of the work of the Finnish Church Revision Committee, and a note on the back of the title of this revised Bible states that it was intended to accord linguistically with the translations of that Committee
